IPhone update problems!

As alot of people, I have encountered the problem of NOT being able to sync my phone with my G5 ever since the latest iPhone & iTunes updates. The phone lights up and indicates it is plugged in, but it will only appear in iPhoto, and not iTunes. The same issue with plugging it into the wall adapter... The phone lights up and indicates it is plugged in, but nothing.
The geniuses at tech support have decided to offer this solution: Update your USB Hardware to USB 2.0. Are you f*ing kidding me!!!!

Try a forced restore. Reboot your computer, start iTunes, connect the iPhone to the computer. Wait. If you get an error, or nothing happens for several minutes hold the sleep/wake and home buttons for a long time (~20 seconds) until you get a message on the screen that it is restoring.
If all of these fail take it to your Apple store.
this should solve your problem

Recent iPhone update problem

Following the iPhone update on April 8, 2011, I found that;
1) all my email was gone
2) my iPhone internet settings are gone
3) I can't access ANYTHING (maps, text, phone, etc.)
4) all my apps which I downloaded were gone
I weas able to find the apps through trial and error finally
But I hvae an iPhone that I can't use for anything, not even a phone call. People I've spoken with have said that all their updates did not affect anything for them!!!

Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on another computer and restore your iphone.
Either way you have to restore your iphone.

IOS 8.1 iPhone update problem

I've just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 8.1 and have lost over 15 GB of storage to "Other". I've done resets, powered down, etc etc but can't seem to clear the "Other" from the storage thus severely limiting the music, books, etc. that the phone should be able to hold. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks..
Mark

Read my response above
if that does not fix it then you may have a hardware fault and then it is a trip to an Apple Store

Iphone updating problems

I am unable to update my iPhone OS. When I go to update it, I get a message "Unable to Verify Update b/c you are not longer connected to the internet".
But I am connected to the internet, both from my home wifi network, or my phones network. Hmmm. Same problem with my work iPad, which I use at home.
Any suggestions? I could not update from iTunes, when the phone was connected to my MacBook. Ideas? Thanks!

possible causes:
1. Your antivirus is blocking access to gs.apple.com.
2. Your phone is jailbroken.
3. Your computer has been used at some time in the past to jaibreak some iOS device (not necessarily the phone with the problem), and its network database was corrupted by the hacking software that was used.
4. Apple's activation servers are down (very rare, and never for more than an hour or so).
For 1. try disabling your antivirus.
For 2. & 3. you need to go somewhere other than an apple forum for help. Although you can try deleting lines containing gs.apple.com from your "hosts" file on your computer.

TS3694 New iPhone update; problem!!!

I am in the process of updating my iPhone 5S and all it shows now is a picture telling me to plug it into iTunes. I have plugged my cord into my USB and my iPhone has done nothing. My iTunes is up to date. Is anyone else having this problem?

Put the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore.
Make sure your iTunes is version 11.1.5.5 or higher.

Automatic check for Iphone update problem

Hello all,
My CMOS battery recently died, and I managed to boot the system with an invalid date in 2010. Itunes checked for updates and pushed the next automatic update date into 10/17/2010. I've since manually checked for updates, and updated the iphone, but would like to have the autocheck date set back.
A search using regedit didn't yield anything promising. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I updated my iTunes today to 7.6 and now it is not recognizing my phone and totally messed it up. I had to use my computer with the old version of iTunes to get it back working. If you are using the new version of iTunes I think that might be your problem. The new version will not recognize my phone.

HT201359 I'm having more iPhone updating problems

Each time my updating/downloading is about done a pop-up says "There was a problem downloading the software for th iPhone. The network connection timed out." And it says " Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later."
My connection is good and I've tried about five times, so what do I do?

It sounds like you restored it with your backup because the shorcuts were back on there. Restore again, as new without your backup. They sync your media back on.

Music iphone update problem. Read pls :'(

Hi, I have upgraded my iphone 3g with the software iO5. I have a problem with music library and this problem is that when I add a new song and edit the title, author and cover. iPhone on the iTunes music library is updated throughout iphone while you see only the title and no date without a cover artist (says unknown). how can I fix this?
Sorry for my English.

Sorry, I'm not trying to be pushy, I'm just giving this a quick bump in the hopes that it's seen a bit more...plus, I wanted to add a quick update.
I used IE 9 (I think it is, the latest IE) to download iTunes, instead of clicking save I clicked 'run' and when it finished downloading it told me it was an unsafe file and wouldn't run it. I wouldn't even give me the option to ignore IE's opinion and run it anyway. So I'm now off to my friends to see if I can get it to download using her internet and see if that makes any difference.
Also, if I were to update to the latest firmware using my current iTunes (which is 4.2.2 I think) would that possibly make a difference or would it more than likely just create more problems? What about restoring my phone through my current iTunes, would that possibly work?
Thanks again.

App Store on iPhone - Updates Problem

Hello Geeks,
I do not believe anyone is experiencing my problem but just in case one of you experts out there will know a quick fix for this.
My App Store icon is showing a number "3". That is how many apps on my phone that have an update available. I proceeded into the store and updated the apps on my phone. Done!
Problem, that was a few days ago. Ever since that update the number "3" on the icon has not reset and it's still showing although the apps have already been updated. Furthermore, iTunes today is showing me that there are apps available for updates but my App Store on the phone is not receiving a new list of updates.
So essentially the app store program on the phone seems to have the updates feature stuck. The update number counter for the icon is not resetting. The updates feature in the app store checks for updates but finds none although there is. Everything else is working, i.e. searching and installing apps.
Thanks!

Exactly as the poster above me.
Here is some more info for you guys. If you need more, let me know!
My 1st iPhone had this problem, did a full restore on it still had the problem, then had a hardware issue and exchanged it. The 2nd iPhone, got it, put old sim card in, updated the firmware via iTunes, then synced all of my music/apps (with all of them updated). And on the iPhone under App Store, it still shows 2 updates, even though iTunes says they are all up to date.
In iTunes on my Macbook Pro, if I click on the applications, and select check for updates, it checks, then says no updates available.
Here are some screenshots of my iPhone to help clarify..

After you click App Store and click Updates, this is the screen you get after it loads.. no matter how long you leave it sitting on that screen. (and yes its been tried on different wifi's/no wifi.)

Iphone update problem

Both on my Windows computer (Vista Premium) (itunes 7.6 updated today) and my Mac (OS 10.4.11) (itunes also updated today), I have gotten the identical message on both machines while attempting to update from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4):
"iTunes could not sync to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected"
This happens after a period (a few minutes)of iTunes "Backing up...". It doesn't back up (at least the back up does not appear in the list).
The phone does not disconnect, but turns off without finishing the back up.

While I'm not an expert on this, I have read similar issues regarding the phone disconnected error. I know there are several threads on the forum regarding this, and if you search, you should find one of them. It seems it may have something to do with corrupt data either on the phone or the computer you are trying to sync with. As I look over things this morning, I will try and find one of them. I know there have been a number of solutions posted, most noteably by an Apple tech with the screen name of Nathan C.
Hope this helps you.
Here, try this thread and see if it helps.

IPhone Update - Problem with Volume

After I updated to iOS 5, none of my applications that use sound (Pandora, Youtube, etc.) have volume or even show a volume adjustment bar. How do I fix this?

I tried "everything" w no luck. did a reset restart and restore. I did not use back up data. I imported my iTunes library from my mac manually. I also used iTunes to restore my apps. still no volume bar. it appears when I use headphones. but that's it. my external speaker works as I tried it while listening to v/m. ringer works too. I also tried blowing into connector and headphone jack to clear dust. still nothing.

If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

Problems with iTunes Match since 5.1 iPhone update?

Since the most recent iPhone update I've had nothing but problems with my iPhone 4's music player, which I presume are being caused by iTunes Match. The service really was not ready for primetime and has been mostly a headache, but the 5.1 update made it exponentially worse.
I've had the following problems: iTunes on iPhone 4 frequently will not play the songs I select. The track remains at 0:00 and I often have to force quit iTunes to play anything else. The phone frequently skips songs at random and goes on to the next track or another track. Selected songs play as other songs off an album or playlist and do not match up with their cover art. The phone rarely plays more than two songs in a row without encountering some problem.
I've tried restoring the phone, turning iTunes match off and on, and completely disabiling it. When I did that, the phone wouldn't play ANYTHING!
Do you guys have any solutions? I've tried to go to genius bar but there's always a huge line even with appointments and I doubt they'll be helpful.
Thanks!

I am having the exact same problems. Most songs not playing, some skipping to the next song, song indexing out of order. Match is becoming a miserable experience..

IPhone update problems!
